I was just screwing around with a mech. Turns out it’s similar-ish to the Carronade, hence the title.
Long range trooper heavy. Can out range (but not outdamage) the Carronade, and in close it can put out a bit more damage. Also a bit more versatile against speciality armors.
I really like the light engines in theory, but find their extra weight limiting compared to XLs and usually am not happy with my designs that have them. Mixed tech helped alleviate some of the issues.
LFF was used to give extra endurance to the LGauss, which caused some weirdness with having a point of armor left over so one leg has an extra point of armor. It originally had standard armor but I saw the leftover crits and wanted the second ton of LGauss ammo.
Stuck with regular IS ER mediums because they pair nicely with clan streak ranges, and limit the mixed tech.
Name was chosen to be knightly, I imagine the LGausss as a lance.
